Eat These Healthy Foods to Maintain Your CoolSculpting Results

CoolSculpting is an FDA-approved body contouring procedure that uses precision-controlled cooling to reduce stubborn fat in your chin, neck, arms, thighs, stomach, love handles, or thighs. As effective as the treatment is at giving you a slimmer, sexier figure, you can further help yourself by observing a healthy, nutrient-rich diet.

CoolSculpting removes around 20% to 25% of the fat cells in the target area(s). A poor diet, however, can still cause the remaining cells to expand. Therefore, if you want to maintain the results of the procedure, it’s necessary you eat right.

Some of the best foods you can eat to maintain your CoolSculpting results include:

Lean, unprocessed meat such as lean beef and chicken breast are excellent protein sources. Because a protein-rich diet can burn around 100 or more calories a day and reduce your cravings by 60%, the consumption of lean meat is a crucial part of any weight loss regimen.

Vegetables play an integral part of a healthy diet whether or not you’ve undergone CoolSculpting. Cruciferous vegetables such as cabbage, Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, and broccoli are filling, high in fiber, and come with decent protein content. Leafy greens including spinach, kale, chards, and collards are high in fiber, low on carbs and calories, and packed with various nutrients that help burn fat. Root vegetables such as potatoes and turnips also boast a number of essential nutrients.

Fruits contain natural sugar and are rich in fiber and various nutrients that prevent your blood sugar from rising too quickly after meals. One study has shown that grapefruit, in particular, can aid in weight loss.

Whole grains such as brown rice, oats, and quinoa contain lots of fiber, a good amount of protein, and a variety of other nutrients vital for weight loss. They’re also filling and improve your metabolic health.

Nuts contain a good balance of fiber, protein, and healthy fats. When eaten in moderation, they can promote weight loss and improve metabolic health. Make sure to snack on these after your CoolSculpting procedure.

Oily fish such as salmon are extremely healthy and filling, thanks to being rich in protein, healthy fats, and many important nutrients. It’s also high in omega-3 fatty acids, which can help reduce the risk of metabolic disease and obesity. Eat fatty fish such as herring, sardines, trout, and mackerel, as well!

Other foods that can help you maintain your CoolSculpting results include eggs, tuna, legumes and beans, cottage cheese, yogurt, coconut oil, and chili pepper.
